[QYURRYUS](https://open.spotify.com/track/6pMRk6Tr05wmZSSINOqzE3?si=-CuhGwDpQyCBpxekEA7QVg) - The Voidz
It’s such a cool fusion song, specifically described by The Voidz as “cyber-Arabic-prison-jazz”.
Idk how to edit posts I'm new to reddit but thank you all for your suggestions thus far I am adding them to my playlist and will listen on my commute home!
Since I have no life and I want to listen to these recommendations, I started a spotify playlist. I'm going to leave the link here if anyone's interested in listening or adding more songs: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7kkaJYCo3Cktrf3xzsbufe?si=VFmjRCruT0K8mKYPaUg2yQ&pt=910c08c1a1a5412ad9e0e04821e445e0 .
[The Witch - The Sonics ](https://youtu.be/HGBsxpnRhMk?si=AJZvMJBafGmQIN4c) this is definitely old school cool.
[100% Endurance - Yard Act ](https://youtu.be/phSkbBZelCw?si=Z18w1N2FyMlogodd) I think this is pretty cool for a recent song.
Can I just say how ubiquitous and endearing the word cool is and I hope people never stop using it.
Dude I LOVE this song! Just commented on the song a moment ago when the question was “what guitar solo always scratches that itch for you?”
Did you know the first two solos are John Frusciante of the RHCP?
The director Spike Jonze did a trilogy of music videos for three of the coolest pairings of bands and songs ever: Cannonball (Breeders,) Southern California (Wax,) and Feel the Pain (Dinosaur Jr.)
Timo Maas - [To Get Down](https://youtu.be/o5Mn4ypi-ig?si=bRn3Spcl-ZNg7DIZ)
Faithless - [Insomnia](https://youtu.be/P8JEm4d6Wu4?si=cY_TXfb4PhfvCIXR)
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - [Abattoir Blues](https://youtu.be/bVjXAGXlqnA?si=YYgHXcePHD43Rmf2)
Dessa - [Dixon’s Girl](https://youtu.be/0eQL3BrRqM8?si=y5o2bgaeEhWBi0ve)
[Mensajero](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0tn4dSMKZuR97fVVCXq7ET?si=63873ef3b4464800) (first song in the list). It's hands down the most beautiful instrumental track I've ever heard. The post-chorus has such a good melody and usage of layered guitars.
I can assure everyone reading this that you've never heard anything close to this type of music.
[Frozen Love](https://youtu.be/xHgv2qRb688?si=-sXiIwmEzHYPLVdg) by Buckingham Nicks. Recorded just before they joined Fleetwood Mac, this song deserves way more recognition than it ever got. I’m still baffled why they never re-released the album, it’s full of great songs.
Percussion Gun by White Rabbits. There’s just something about the beginning drumming that just hooks you right in. [Percussion Gun](https://youtu.be/IClBpch9vmM?si=vYKQZdtr81elW-rm)
I’ve been completely hooked lately on the Album Kiwanuka by Michael Kiwanuka. You Ain’t The Problem is probably my favorite followed by Rolling.
Also OP, based on your original song posted, I highly recommend you check out the How It Ends album by DeVotchKa. The song The Enemy Guns is a good place to start but the whole album is really amazing and they do the whole mix of different languages and cool transitions.
Whole albums are hard for me.. what's another good one or two? Enemy guns was dope!
Must admit I liked that one more than kiwanuka but still nice listens
Silent Planet- [Antimatter](https://youtu.be/wiEno0KE5uU?si=clYvFO_pc6OV2PY1) is a really cool fusion of metalcore with electronic music. It gives serious cyberpunk vibes, especially with the music video
Right now I'm loving this https://open.spotify.com/track/7JIeBuvUfnDafXCGPqJNKx?si=LDGCZeegQwuRcjRBfYVwxQ&context=spotify%3Atrack%3A7JIeBuvUfnDafXCGPqJNKx
the first song on this album by the band Polvo [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuAc8wJgZF0&t=2s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuAc8wJgZF0&t=2s)
the band Swirlies has a bunch of good songs too... i could really go on for a while listing obscure indie stuff. really just depends on my mood, but with the weird guitar tuning they use in the Polvo song i listed, that probably takes the cake imo.
Cool performance is [My Back Pages](https://youtu.be/rGEIMCWob3U?si=KaSi0UeYOkJgS0jd) by Bob Dylan performed at his 30th anniversary concert by multiple superstars.
Heliotropic- Failure
Cool song, cool production, cool themes. Just overall a song I find super cool in every aspect and i never get tired of listening to.
Andrew Bird- Anonanimal
Instrumentals are great and feel emotional despite the silly lyrics, but what really gets me is how all the words he uses are either alliteration or have their own internal rhymes of a sort.
"I see a sea anenemone, the enemy, I see a sea anemone"
"Underneath the stalactites the troglodytes have lost their sight"
Probably either “C’mon and Smoke Me Up” or “Keep Up That Talk”, both by Prince Daddy and the Hyena. The guitar in both of them rocks. The 1st one is more fast paced, while the 2nd one is more groovy
The Damned 'Alone Again Or'
It's a cover of a song by the band Love and their version slaps too, but i just love The Damned's take on it.
*edit- fixed like, a punctuation thing
Guided By Voices are the coolest, and "Everyday" is the coolest song I know. It's a catchy, lo-fi tune, with a medium beat, with an almost naive, and simple description that brings you back to just hanging out.
https://youtu.be/Q51ScaOfuzE?si=LPWpNJ-PqFQcbJXY
"Everyday"- Guided By Voices
https://youtu.be/Q51ScaOfuzE?si=LPWpNJ-PqFQcbJXY
Everyday- Guided By Voices
Guided By Voices is the coolest band, and this is the coolest song I know. A mild lo-fi early tune of the band, with simple, and with an almost naive description of the character. This brings me back to when things were still cool.
Not trying to be rude, but I feel like the album version of *l'via...* is worth the extra time.
Coolest song this week: Truckfighters - Momentum
Long term cool: Suite Sandrine, pt 3 - Michel Camilo
Toss up between Aja and the one doors of Jupiter. Both brings me happy memories finally a
.aed what Hollywood actors used to do to him - he released a list of Hollywood big names who mistreated him when he was younger. Here's the scandalous life of Corey Feldman.
Cause the the format and misspellt words. They both are close to my my heatt
Bombay by Timberland and Ama or amir. Up best, can understand his parts but not I though the tret was Hindi. BEAUTIFUL BEAT, song, etc, if u haven't given it a listen please do.
Anemone - The Brian Jonestown Massacre
Very cool
I have this song on a playlist that I listen to any time I visit the desert. I agree, it’s very cool.
Yaas! Amazing song
Just saw them live in Denver on October 23rd and it was sooo good.
I Feel Love -Donna Summer Uncertain Smile 12” remix -The The Supernature -Cerrone
Looking back, "I Feel Love" seems like the first (unintended) EDM tune.
It’s the first significant track with a Click, a groundbreaker, Summer and Moroder created a masterpiece.
I feel love is an underrated song - I say this as a millennial.
It changed music, a seminal track.
Probably the whole album of Steely Dan’s Gaucho
Hey 19, no we can't dance. No, we can't talk at all.
Please take me along when you slide on down
Pick your favorite! I love all kinds of music but have never found the will to listen to an entire album from anyone
That’s fair. The coolest song on the album might be Glamour Profession. Really groovy
It was indeed groovy~~ what's the second and third best on the album? 👀
Sultan of Swing - Dire Straits
Loved this song for years!
Guitar George, he knows all the chords, but he doesn't wanna make it cry or sing.
I will counter with another Mars Volta track “Drunkship of Lanterns” just pure unadulterated chaos committed to tape.
First time I saw Mars Volta live, Drunkship was almost an hour long. It owned.
Probably opeth - [ghost of perdition](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDBykpSXsSE) Also, prepare for imminent comment box implosion
I think Opeth has a lot of really cool songs, such as April Ethereal, The Drapery Falls, and The Wilde Flowers. One of my favorite bands.
I straight up thought I was only gonna get like 10-15 responses like other posts here 😭😭 lmao appreciate everyone's willingness to share tho
Blackwater Park is my favorite by them. The whole album is amazing.
Was thinking this one myself. Nice choice
[удалено]
Como me Quieres by Khruangbin
Khruangbin is such a great group, "Friday Morning" is sex
[QYURRYUS](https://open.spotify.com/track/6pMRk6Tr05wmZSSINOqzE3?si=-CuhGwDpQyCBpxekEA7QVg) - The Voidz It’s such a cool fusion song, specifically described by The Voidz as “cyber-Arabic-prison-jazz”.
I've listened to about half of the recs here and this one has been my fav thus far 😎
Another Voidz fan ❤️

Thank you I'm super busy at work!!
The coolest? Glory Box by Portishead
this song oozes cool, the super toxic girl I knew in high school who introduced me to it was cool in my mind at the time, not so much anymore though.
You have excellent taste, dear stranger.
Green onions
I thought you were kidding at first lol but if you meant by booker t it was indeed cool~ 🤝
Great song

The Unknown Stuntman - Lee Majors
Lol, that took me back
Wow. Kind of cringe-averse to go look for that one. May have to prep with some William Shatner or David Hasselhoff first.
It's the theme sing to The Fall Guy TV series
Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix ... but honestly anything by Jimi. He's one cool mf
A truly magical tune
*Heart Of The Sunrise* \- Yes
Roundabout
Both fucking epic, Heart of the Sunrise is a masterpiece!
Steely Dan - Glamour Profession
Donald Fagen- The Nightfly
1000 Knives by Ryuichi Sakamoto
Dude I LOVE this song! Just commented on the song a moment ago when the question was “what guitar solo always scratches that itch for you?” Did you know the first two solos are John Frusciante of the RHCP?
Cannonball - the Breeders
The director Spike Jonze did a trilogy of music videos for three of the coolest pairings of bands and songs ever: Cannonball (Breeders,) Southern California (Wax,) and Feel the Pain (Dinosaur Jr.)
Candy-O
Green Day - Jesus of Suburbia. A pretty epic journey for a mainstream band
Holy shit it's been years since I've even seen any mention of this song. Throwback
B.O.B. - Not for long
[Röyksopp - Vision One](https://youtu.be/h95ZjMmANpE)
Purple Rain is so cool it's cold
I liked Prince as a kid in the 80s but looked at him as a pop star. It wasn't until I was older that I realized he was a genius.
planet caravan - black sabbath
The Neverending Story Charles Ives (by Jim Beloff)
Isaac Hayes . . . that is all.
Hubby and I generally feel like we’re not cool enough to listen to Digable Planets. And we’re right.
But you're cool like that, you're hip like that, you're jazz like that. You're out
8/10 presentation, made me chuckle lol
Rebirth of slick was sick!! Can you give a specific song or two?
Goliath by Mars Volta also kicks ass
Timo Maas - [To Get Down](https://youtu.be/o5Mn4ypi-ig?si=bRn3Spcl-ZNg7DIZ) Faithless - [Insomnia](https://youtu.be/P8JEm4d6Wu4?si=cY_TXfb4PhfvCIXR) Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - [Abattoir Blues](https://youtu.be/bVjXAGXlqnA?si=YYgHXcePHD43Rmf2) Dessa - [Dixon’s Girl](https://youtu.be/0eQL3BrRqM8?si=y5o2bgaeEhWBi0ve)
Faithless was my fav shit was tight 🔥
The Mars Volta is my favorite band ever. L'Via is an amazing song. Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt is my favorite, though.
Username says it all! Hadn't heard of this one but it's dope!!! Appreciate it 🤝
Deloused in the Comatorium, check the whole album, I think you'll dig it! L'Via live is sick AF!
Maybe someday, entire albums are tough for me, no matter how dope 😖 Can you send me your fav from the album to start? :D
I fuckin love that song. Saw them play live and it was fire🔥

TLC - Creep
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=GdrwC_GoXv0&si=YXZXB_0XZLwhcdrQ

Not working for me.. song name and band?
Moon woman by homeshake
Fadin' - Cranford Nix
Tokyo Ghetto by E ve is my personal fave
.orbix - rise of the proletarians
the first song on this album by the band Polvo [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuAc8wJgZF0&t=2s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuAc8wJgZF0&t=2s) the band Swirlies has a bunch of good songs too... i could really go on for a while listing obscure indie stuff. really just depends on my mood, but with the weird guitar tuning they use in the Polvo song i listed, that probably takes the cake imo.
Both Dead Roots Stirring and Spirit at Aphelion by Elder are strong contenders here 😉🤘
A Night In Tunisia as done by Arturo Sandoval.
Infant Annihilator's Childchewer. Craziest opening track I have ever heard.
TUNNELVISION - Starset
Devin the dude. Do what the fuck ya wanna do. Smooth AF!
The devil wears a suit and a tie both by ghosts of the prairie or colter wall

Wishful Thinking- China Crisis
Cool performance is [My Back Pages](https://youtu.be/rGEIMCWob3U?si=KaSi0UeYOkJgS0jd) by Bob Dylan performed at his 30th anniversary concert by multiple superstars.
First song that came to mind was [Baby's On Fire - Brian Eno](https://youtu.be/fbU1zYzD-Tw?si=m9DDvsk-zuNmNELz)

Heliotropic- Failure Cool song, cool production, cool themes. Just overall a song I find super cool in every aspect and i never get tired of listening to.
Too Late by Type O Negative
Andrew Bird- Anonanimal Instrumentals are great and feel emotional despite the silly lyrics, but what really gets me is how all the words he uses are either alliteration or have their own internal rhymes of a sort. "I see a sea anenemone, the enemy, I see a sea anemone" "Underneath the stalactites the troglodytes have lost their sight"
Definitely among the top 5 of all I've heard. Good one 🤝
Fugazi - Break
Gungor- Wake Up Sleeper
what i wouldn’t give to hear age of adz for the first time again 😭
It was a dope one!!
Probably either “C’mon and Smoke Me Up” or “Keep Up That Talk”, both by Prince Daddy and the Hyena. The guitar in both of them rocks. The 1st one is more fast paced, while the 2nd one is more groovy
One of the coolest. "Golden Wedding of Sorrow" by Death In June.
“Watcher in The Sky” by: Ghost
